The perfect combination of old-world charm and modern comforts. The owners have thought of every detail to create a lovely stay, and we loved arriving to a warm welcome of tea and cookies. The rooms are precious and cared for immaculately. May, the hostess and caretaker of the space, was so delightful! So caring of guests. The breakfast was exquisite, and served with love. Thank you, DuPont Mansion!

8/10 Very good

This is a lovely old home in an interesting area. Just a little bit on the edge of being uncomfortable to stay there. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good and staff was friendly and helpful.

Grand and Luxurious

It was like living a luxurious life a century ago, upscale and grand. I love most meeting the other occupants for breakfast in the same table. That was a treat to chit chat amongst them.
Jonathan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Meg and Melody were fantastic! Fun sharing stories about the mansion, and meeting others during breakfast - also appreciated the texts from Grace ahead of our stay with instructions on accessing the mansion, etc. Grace also recommended restaurants, and we had a magical evening at Buck's - Reggie played piano, Anthony greeted us warmly, reminisced about Buck (the prior owner), and shared a mutual admiration for Prince Rogers Nelson. Natalie was a dynamite server. Food and drinks were exceptional - thank you all for being a true highlight on our vacation!

Great stay!

We already live in town, but stayed here for my wife's birthday weekend. Owners were amazing and breakfast was just as good. They were more than happy to answer questions about the historic property and Old Louisville. We plan to stay at Central Park B&B (their other property just a few doors down). We had a great time!

Lovely

We were upgraded to a room at Central Park Bed and Breakfast with our permission; we were notified ahead of our stay of an a/c problem at Dupont Mansion. A welcome gift for our trouble was provided, even though it was only a block from our original destination. Beautiful room, amazing shower, and the specialty breakfast (included) was unique and wonderful. The hosts were pleasant and kind. Definitely recommend! The complimentary cookies weren't bad, either.

Stately, well cared for, and beautiful mansion. Dinner recommendation was spot on. The neighborhood of Old Louisville is an architectural treasure trove.

Room was great. Bed was super comfortable and we stayed in the Carnegie room. It was convenient to whiskey row. The food annd service were excellent. The house had so much charm and character.

Great atmosphere with a gourmet breakfast

We really enjoyed our stay there. When we were there, there was a Holiday Home tour of nearby mansions. This one could have easily compared with those on the tour. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was a gourmet treat every day prepared by their chef. The location is surrounded by Victorian mansions, not downtown but close enough to everything. They also operate the Central Park B&B, in cast this one is booked.

Experience Old Louisville

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at DuPont Mansion. Our room was nicely decorated and spacious. The bathroom was extra large. We'd call the breakfasts "gourmet" - very tasty and satisfying. Meg did an excellent job of taking care of our needs and answering our questions during our stay. The location was perfect for us - a quiet neighborhood with easy parking. It was a short, direct drive down the street to downtown Louisville. Churchhill Downs - 3 miles, airport - 6 miles. One suggestion - if you don't like stairs, be sure to stay on the second floor, The old mansions have very high floor-to-floor heights. We plan to stay at DuPont Manor when we visit Louisville again.

Weekend Getaway

We were in the Louisa May Alcott room. It was historical but with modern conveniences. Decorated throughout with beautiful furniture, the mansion has tall, heavy doors with ornate crown molding. A gourmet breakfast is served every morning. The innkeeper is very friendly and knowledgeable. Other historical homes are in the area for walking tours. Louisiana full of fun things to do, great food, and fantastic bourbon.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a quick one night getaway and booked the Deluxe King Suite. We were given the “DuPont” suite and it was a beautiful room with 12 foot ceilings and two fireplaces. The bathroom was huge and had double sinks. The entire property was lovely and furnished with unique pieces true to the era it was built in. I was particularly impressed with the ornately carved original marble fireplaces on the first floor. The service provided was amazing and we had a delicious gourmet breakfast before heading back home. This is the perfect spot for a romantic getaway and would highly recommend it. We will certainly be back!
Amy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The breakfast was excellent. It was served like I ate in a restaurant, and food is delicious. The service using text or SMS was prompt and very helpful. Room is very spacious, the tub and hot/cold, and shower is very relaxing. It was a fine experience. If you want a cozy, homey and different kind of stay that also takes you back in time, this is a great place to uncover. Special mention to Grace, Viji and her husband, it's nice to meet the owners and have them see how hands on they are to take care of us, very kind and generous, thank you, we had a wonderful time!
Geraldine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good room, but overall exp. needs improvement.

Nice spacious room. Helpful staff on the phone as had to request entry code. Cleanliness was average and I found the bed topper and mattress was too soft for me. Very quiet. Parking useful but rear garden needs some TLC. Breakfast was not to my taste. Would prefer choice of eggs or pancakes, not the weird cobbler? . New chef apparently, and not a good start. Left hungry .
